The beginning of our first bus home…

October 6, 2011 — organicmel

My partner Grant has previously owned and renovated a bus into a liveable space rather than its former commercial role. He is also a cabinet maker/builder by trade, so renovating buses really brings out his skill and artistry. The bus began with a dream, neither of us having a truck licence, driving them was always going to be a problem. While on our journey doing something else, the seed was planted in our brains to drive trucks, work in the mines, earn money quickly. Thankfully the idea never came to fruition, because I always struggled with the fact that mining – of any kind – is not kind to the planet. However out of that initial thought we got our truck licences, are currently employed as drivers and can drive buses…. So the hunt began to fulfil part of Grant’s dream, and progressed us along the journey to the farm. So here are the beginning photos of our bus….:)
